the specific "Her" I was referencing was the journalist that was the subject of the linked article.

No politicians today participate in cancel culture? I doubt it. Regardless let's use a non political example. I assume if the issue is "force of government" then you were 100% okay…

Cancel culture isn't bound by politics, ethnicity, gender, etc. American conservatives are equally as guilty of this as progressives.

I want content that condones pedophilia, bestiality, and other extreme pornography deplatformed yes. Why do you want to keep it up?
